Yeah, dig deep uh
Dig deep uh
Dig deep
Dig deep, dig farther, dig harder
Dig like a surgeon diggin in your aorta
You livin your life or diggin your grave
Diggin for the bottom or diggin for the wave
Diggin to stay afloat or diggin the flotation
Diggin for the circle or diggin the rotation
They be diggin for the look and diggin for the images
I been diggin in my heels and spittin with the menaces
Dig your heart out with a spoon, test the sharpness
Diggin in the dirt I been lookin for catharsis
Hole in the ceilin like I'm standing in the Pantheon
Gods all around, I been diggin in the ambiance
Diggin for lessons, diggin for potential
Diggin for the breaks, diggin cuz it's instrumental
Dig it like it's dental workin drillin your enamel
Diggin a hole throwin dice treatin life like a gamble
Dig deep, dig farther, dig harder
Dig like a surgeon diggin in your aorta
You livin your life or diggin your grave
Diggin for the bottom or diggin for the wave
Dig deep, dig farther, dig harder
Dig like a surgeon diggin in your aorta
You livin your life or diggin your grave
Diggin for the bottom or diggin for the wave
Diggin the demo, they was diggin the set
Diggin in the crates, diggin in for respect
Used to order runs of CDs in a digipak
Now these so called MCs sippin similac
Baby mindsets, and baby timid shit
Dig it, y'all been actin baby with your penmanship
I guess we all babies on God's time
But tell that to a old man with alzheims
He can't really dig into his memories or find
A way to dig the energy from his lifetime
Dig into your heart and grip the lifeline
Dig into a moment and then let your light shine
I been diggin that feelin since I was like 9
Diggin for connects, they diggin for pipelines
Tappin the source, diggin the well test a right mind
Diggin to the bottom til we bring light to the night time
Dig deep, dig farther, dig harder
Dig like a surgeon diggin in your aorta
You livin your life or diggin your grave
Diggin for the bottom or diggin for the wave
Dig deep, dig farther, dig harder
Dig like a surgeon diggin in your aorta
You livin your life or diggin your grave
Diggin for the bottom or diggin for the wave

Yeah, this just sound big right
Big body like the Benz got brolic
Think in autopilot while they countin out they mileage
Silent treatment, just the kindness that I kill em with
All up on my stylish shit, wylin for the thrill of it
Build this thing bottom up or it’s gon topple over
Nothing you could do to ever shock a solider
Cold blooded killers aimin straight for the head shot
Type to leave blood clots up on your bed spot
Dead the plot when they can’t find the evidence
And do it flagrant like big pharma medicines
Another stage goin dumb with run on sentences
Lately I been makin music for the player entrances
Penance never paid, caught a sentence from the fade
They was lookin for the wave til it hit em in the face
What’s paid, what’s borrowed, what’s the time value of tomorrow
Bars off angle like the mark of Zorro
Thorough as the borrows but I tend to burrow
Then I just emerge to admire murals
Yo, paint a picture with your verse, it’s worth a thousand
To catch the sermon, you gotta up climb the mountain
Storm brewin, you could feel the powers rumblin
Big steps like it’s elephants that’s stumblin
Makin moves, no contemplatin wonderin
Yo feel in the air tonight like it’s thunderin
Storm brewin, you could feel the powers rumblin
Big steps like it’s elephants that’s stumblin
Makin moves, no contemplatin wonderin
Yo feel in the air tonight like it’s thunderin
Big moves, big looks, big things
They said what’s a big watch without the big chains
Big range, big boss, big image
What’s a big start without the big finish
Yeah, big facts out here, y’all got big limits
But you ain’t gon find shit if you a bit timid
Big business, big dollars, big coin
I don’t know shit bout that, I got a bic & I’m flickin a joint
What’s the point of half the shit that we doin
You gotta get with movement, bitch I’m just movin
Big improvements occur in the dark
Ayo a big forest blaze just start with one spark
Big flames, big heat, big tinderbox
Burn it down and build it up out the cinderblocks
Big bricks build big civilizations
Big battlefields with big populations
Storm brewin, you could feel the powers rumblin
Big steps like it’s elephants that’s stumblin
Makin moves, no contemplatin wonderin
Yo feel in the air tonight like it’s thunderin
Storm brewin, you could feel the powers rumblin
Big steps like it’s elephants that’s stumblin
Makin moves, no contemplatin wonderin
Yo feel in the air tonight like it’s thunderin
